Description

Jenny King's poetry collection Moving Day offers a thoughtful exploration of memory, peace, and the natural world. Born in London during the Blitz, King draws upon her own experiences to craft poems that consider the complexities of human relationships and the power of language. With a focus on clarity and memorable perception, King's poems often employ traditional patterns in innovative ways, incorporating rhyme and fluid forms to convey her thoughts on the present and its relationship to the past. Through her work, she reveals the fallibility of memory and the ways in which our understanding of ourselves is shaped by our experiences. This collection results from a long writing life and study of both past and contemporary poets, showcasing King's mastery of language and form.
